Driver-Assistance Camera Reports Poor Visibility on a Clear Day

A clear road view for the driver does not prove the camera has a suitable view. Glass condition, obstructions and system state should be considered using the vehicle’s guidance.

Check accessible conditions only

Record dirt, condensation, stickers or recent glass work near the camera area. Use the approved cleaning method and do not move the camera mount. Note whether the warning clears naturally or remains persistent.

If normal checks do not explain it, send the exact warning and repair history. The workshop should distinguish a visibility limitation from calibration or hardware faults. Continue driving only with the normal controls and within the manual’s guidance, without relying on an assistance function showing unavailable status.
